Hey there.. the default NPC jitter can be fixed with this :
line 1920 of c_baseentity if (!IsSelfAnimating()) to if(IsSelfAnimating()) Although I think you can remove it entirely as this ended up having adverse effects when trying to actually do self animating entities (like properly predicting players), perhaps you could do if((isNPC() && IsSelfAnimating()) || !IsSelfAnimating()) Let me know if that has any effect on your problem On Dec 3, 2007 2:15 PM, Christopher Harris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > That did not help much.
